Dunlop FX 500
Overview
Meet the 2025 FX 500! Like the previous generation, this racquet gives you the tools to hit with power and spin. With a sub 325 swingweight, it is not only ideal for intermediates but it will also tempt the more advanced ball striker seeking raw speed. Compared to FX 500 Tour it has a slightly more powerful and forgiving head size, but still feels precise enough for selecting ambitious targets. For 2025, Dunlop introduces a Power Boost+ Frame Geometry that increases the beam width in key locations to boost power and stability. Other updates for 2025 include Power Wave Grommets, which deploy an innovative wave pattern to stiffen the center of the stringbed, creating a more even feel and power level across the hitting zone. As with the previous generation, Dunlop adds comfort by using Sonic Core w/Infinergy in the upper hoop, along with an anti-vibration compound in the grip and midsection of the head. Overall, this is a strong update that should appeal to intermediate and advanced players looking to play aggressive tennis.
